My alarm zone several times and I dismissed it each time grunting to myself but when my eyes went to time it was past eight damn myself.

First day at work and I'm going to be heavenly late; way to go with impression Stella. The day before Emma traveled back home, for spending a week left in our holidays with mum and dad; but I didn't due to this job and she told me how much she will long for my presence. When I skyped her it seemed opposite, teasing me she scratched the part of missing me because Mum has recently adopted a munchkin cat' and I'd never seen more adorable breed. Mum gushed over how proud she is, she would always support me in for anything I did even it's a job of waitress back then downtown.

I wore a white washed denims with a white blouse tucked in, wrapping a band around my loose hair and doing little so makeup to look alive not that I straight forward came from mortuary.
Taking an uber I told him to be fast, but just complained this is the only fast he could try. When the cab reached I handed money quickly to cab driver shouting keep the change' while taking two steps at a time towards the building; thanks to God the doors were sliding else my head would have been split in two due clumsiness.

"Today's my first workday as an intern here. Is Mr. Arthur in his office?" I asked politely still out of breath. The woman in her old age or mid maybe, raised her head from whatever the work she was doing, the slid her spectacles further to the tip of her nose eyeing from underneath it, from what I know she wasn't here on my last visit here. She checked through the computer and I took in the interior of the office everything was so well detailed giving it a home office vibe; seems like their designer's an english too alot of wood work here an there.

"Oh, I see. You're Miss. Scarlet?" She said with her focus still on that computer "I'll call someone to guide you, beacuse right now both Mr. Arthur and his assistant probably you're working under are out on a business trip to France" She informed me smiling tightly with her thin lips, making a strong contact and my leg started it's bouncing habbit stop you fool. In the meantime a women taller than me with brunette hair came by shaking my hand, "Until the Miss.Scarlet she would guide you and you can approach her anytime for help"
I nodded in approvance and the lady in front of me smiled at me as sweet gesture to reassure me.

"Hi! My name is Nate Heathers and I'll lead you towards your desk" She chirped putting her hand on small of my back guiding me forward. I was greeted with hellos' to my way; the desk was situated at the outside of my boss's office. I could'nt deny the interior there was too well etched, designer putting a real effort with all the white/black theme and the wood.

"Come here Miss. Scarlet these are some files, Boss told me to hand you them" She took me inside of the office and it has more glass than any of the outside "Thank you Miss. Heathers" I smiled at her and she replied with a no problem. After all the tour thing I took all the files managing to wrap my arms around the bundle.

I sighed sitting on the chair behind the desk, a note was posted on the small working board place atop of my desk, it's from the assistant I'm working under I still don't know her name. She wrote in the note how she wants me to wind up all the work, including reading all the files, making calls to the each company's assistant, dealing with them formally and marking the suitable sponsors for the coming event which altogether don't know about. The list of the companies and numbers were right next to the note and I'm already having a panic attack, the amount is large and I just had three hours left of my working shift including lunch break. Still the work has to be done before they come and they are not planning to come early in any cases. So I have a week right? The thought made my worries less and magiate the problem.
